Lenin's booklet State and Revolution is widely recognised to be a
lightening bolt in Marxist theory. Written in the months
immediately running up to the October Revolution of 1917, Lenin
turned the traditional socialist concept of the state on its head,
arguing for the need to smash the organs of the bourgeois state and
for them to be replace by a "semi-state" of soviets, or workers'
councils, in which ordinary people would take on the functions of
the state machine themselves in a new and radically democratic
manner. This new edition includes a substantial new introduction by
renowned theorist Antonio Negri, who argues for the continued
relevance of these ideas.
